Pride is a Protest! On Wednesday, we picketed three hospitals that abandoned trans youth and their families. If hospitals can cut off one group of patient's care due to political attacks, they can cut off anyone.

NYU Langone pulled out of marching tomorrow at @nycpride.bsky.social due to community pressure. Mount Sinai is still scheduled too march. ny1.com/nyc/manhatta...

Reminded of one of my favorite chants at the Rise Up for Trans Youth rally organized by ACT UP, the Gender Liberation Movement, & Transformative Schools in Feb 2025: NYU grow a spine Trans lives are on the line!!

During rush hour on June 24, the Gender Liberation Movement and ACT UP NY held protests outside three New York City health care monopolies that cut off gender-affirming care to transgender youth earlier this year: Mount Sinai, NYU Langone and NewYork-Presbyterian.

We are disappointed @nycpride.bsky.social did not taken a stronger stance in line with community demands and the families of trans youth. Allowing them to march provides cover for the harm they’ve caused and fails to hold them accountable.

Hospitals dropped trans patients around New York City in capitulation to Trump. Now pride leaders and GLM are fighting back, protesting their marching at Pride after harming members of the community. The latest from S. Baum, our writer. Subscribe to support our journalism.

THIS HOSPITAL ABANDONED TRANS YOUTH + THEIR FAMILIES Mount Sinai ended healthcare for transgender youth—not because of medical science, but because of political pressure from the Trump administration.

Affected youth and families spoke out against the hospital bosses' criminal capitulation to Trump, despite New York state laws that are supposed to protect trans youth and providers.

Today Gender Liberation Movement, ACT UP New York and others held protests outside three New York healthcare monopolies that have cut off gender-affirming care to transgender youth: Mount Sinai, NYU Langone and Columbia-Presbyterian. (My photos are from the action at Mount Sinai in Chelsea.) 🧵

We mobilized about 80 people to three different locations. Proud of everyone who tapped in and grateful to the parents of trans kids that spoke.

Today we picketed NYU Langone, Mt. Sinai, and New York Presbyterian all at the same time to demand they immediately restart care for trans youth, apologize and meet with impacted families.

SHOW UP for trans kids!

NYC SHOW UP FOR TRANS KIDS! 🏳️‍⚧️
 NYC hospitals have made a voluntary decision to end care for trans youth, preemptively bowing to the Trump administration. We demand they restart care! Join us today as we picket all three hospitals that have abandoned trans kids.

@rikiwilchins.bsky.social 2026 Jun Advocate Transgender advocates, along with past and present NYC Pride grand marshals, demand Heritage of Pride bar hospitals that have stopped providing kids' care from participating in 2026 Pride march. www.advocate.com/news/culture...

LGBTQ+ activists demand NYC Pride ban hospitals that ended trans youth care - buff.ly/th3tt9C

Mt Sinai and NYU Langone should absolutely be prohibited from marching in NYC pride. www.them.us/story/nyc-pr...

Sounds good to me. If you're gonna throw trans kids under the bus, you shouldn't be allowed at Pride.

NYC Pride grand marshals call for ban on hospitals that ended youth gender-affirming care gothamist.com/news/nyc-pri...

They are calling on Heritage of Pride to stand with trans youth and block hospitals, including NYU Langone Health and Mount Sinai, from participating.

We call on @nycpride.bsky.social to ban the hospitals that ended care for trans youth from marching in the parade. At a moment when trans youth need institutions to stand firm, these hospitals chose cowardice over courage. 20 current & former grand marshals agree: www.them.us/story/nyc-pr...

The first Pride was a fight against police violence. Drag queens & Black trans women fought cops at Stonewall to win freedoms this admin is clawing back. Now and always we fight back. Support the orgs under fire. Refuse to comply. Everybody in. Nobody out. Photos: @framed.unrest @genderlib.com

Tr*nny? From Nancy Mace? Groundbreaking. In December 2024, weeks after Mace started her bathroom bigotry, GLM staged a bathroom sit-in where fifteen of us were arrested. While we were held, Mace showed up to the police headquarters and screamed slurs at us in her megaphone.

This is great!!!

Time to stand up gays! Pay attention.

This is amazing❣️

Literally every podcast I’ve ever recorded has more parents of trans kids’ voices in it than @nytimes.com ‘s Pulitzer-nominated podcast about gender care for trans kids. (Because mine have one (me) and theirs had none (none).)

Huh. You'd think a comprehensive 6 episode audio investigation of youth gender medicine by a major US newspaper would include at least one interview with a trans young person or their parent.

I literally *just* (finally) saw DEVIL WEARS PRADA and I'm so glad just so that I could thoroughly get exactly what is going on in this clip. 👏👏👏

This is just poetically superb

Listen up gays! It's the first Monday in May and we got somethin’ to say. This “gender stuff” isn’t just about trans people. It’s attacks on families, medical providers, attacks on you – and we need to fight together now more than ever.

Fact Checking The New York Times’ Response to Mom of Trans Teen in Shareholder Meeting

New York Times defends coverage after mum of trans teen demands accountability https://www.thepinknews.com/2026/04/23/new-york-times-trans-coverage-2026/?utm_content=1776940805&utm_medium=social&utm_source=bluesky

I'm really glad the loathsome worms who are running this paper's reputation into the ground have to at least expend the effort coming up with lies to justify their anti-trans bigotry on a regular basis. I hope it's an iota as exhausting for them as it is for me, a Times contributor with a trans kid.

The question came during the company’s earnings call, where a parent pressed leadership on the real-world impact of its journalism. https://mrf.lu/XdmS

Shareholders accuse the NYT of bias against trans people, Sulzberger gives a compelling counterargument, saying 'nuh uh.' Check out this week's TWIBS by @alyssaur.bsky.social

Fact Check via @glaad.bsky.social: The New York Times’ Response to Mom of Trans Teen in Shareholder Meeting: “What Steps Are You Taking to Be Accountable?” glaad.org/fact-check-t...

The NYT believes their coverage on trans people has been fair – we beg to differ! GLM affirming mom of a trans teen confronted the New York Times during its annual shareholder meeting about its anti-trans coverage, which Trump administration & others have cited to justify discrimination & harm.

what is glaring is that her question was about harm the Times coverage has done (one example: cited by anti-trans lawmakers) and the response sidesteps the issue of harm. where is the acknowledgement that trans people might exist beyond being objects of their coverage? not here.

As troopers hoisted activists up from their seats, the group sang in harmony: “No one is getting left behind this time. No one is getting left behind. No one is getting left behind this time. We get there together or never get there at all.” kansasreflector.com/2026/03/10/c...

We’re proud & deeply grateful to the parents & medical providers of trans youth who answered the call & stood with us at HHS last week. One mom shared her journey toward acceptance & affirmation of her trans son — a journey that gave him the space to flourish. Gender-affirming care saved his life.

“For my kid, if she has to stop care, I fear for her mental well-being. That’s why I went to D.C.,” she said. “And I just felt like when I look at my kid in the eyes, years from now, I can say I did everything that I could.” 19thnews.org/2026/03/moms...
